Music Theory Exam Word Doc Aug 24, 2014 Analysis This two-page segment is a movement from a larger composition. Key = G Major, tempo = 3/8, length = 71 bars or measures. The Form may be: Theme 1, Transition, Theme 2, Theme 1, Theme 3 (or altered theme 2), Coda OR A , transition, B, A, C, Coda Identified on score. The score is in G+ for 18 bars, there is a transition from bars 9-18, and modulation to the Dominant, D+ from bar 19 - 71, A repeat sign at bar 71 indicates that the entire movement is to be repeated. Leading Note s (Leading tones) are identified as LN in perfect cadences. Theme 1; bars 1-8; The tonic, G+, is firmly established, followed by V b (1st inversion) V7 to I (tonic) ending with a perfect cadence. Transition; bars 9-18 form a transition to V of G+, = D+. All notation will be written in the key of D+, D being the tonic, I. The transition oscillates between I and V in G+, ending in V. I - V is a imperfect cadence, but the ending on V establishes establishes the key of D+ for the remainder of the piece. Bars 11-16 are sequences of chromatic scalar notes with some non-chord notes. (Sequences are 11-12, 13-14, 15-16 altered) Theme 2; Bars 19-26 are sequences in 2-bar fragments, I-V, I-V7 with all instruments (voices) contributing. Bars 27-34 essentially repeat 19-26 with violin I only on alternate bars. The effect is to move the music along, ending in I-V-I perfect cadence in bar 35. Bar 35 is the final bar for the perfect cadence, but it is also the first bar of the next phrase in which Theme 1 returns. Bars 35-42 are similar to theme 1; 1-8, now in D+. Bars 43-62: Theme 3 has many of the characteristics of Theme 2; scalar fragments with chromatic non-chord notes and sequences. Bars 43-48 are repeated as Bars 49-54 with sequences. Bars 53-55 end with a perfect cadence, V-V7-I. AT bar 55 the rhythm changes; It now appears that the last 8th note of each bar is a pickup beat (anacrusis) for the next bar. Bars 56-59 are repeated, altered, in 63-63. From bars 62-68 all four instruments (voices) play the same notes among 3 octaves.The closing bars are V, iii, IV V7, suspended V7 in bar 70, and I in bar 71. The Coda is from bars 63-71. !
